Would like some advice/opinions on this situation please (UK based)

So, a family member of mine's car was caught on a dashcam by someone and sent into the police for poor driving. -The dashcam does not show who is driving or the person driving getting out of the car.

Over an hour later the police turned up at this person's address (they had been in the house for over an hour) and took the person into the station - they blew over the limit.

As advised by a solicitor, they said no comment to every police interview question and were "released under investigation without bail."

Would you say there is enough evidence for prosecution? What else could they be investigating?

Thanks for any opinions/help!
 
In this situation the police may be able to rely on the evidence of driving earlier on together with a result from the police station. The level of alcohol at the time of the test is taken to be the level at the time of driving unless you can prove otherwise. The difficulty for the prosecution in a case like this is proving that you were the driver. In the absence of any definitive evidence regarding who was driving the vehicle, the prosecution case will be in difficulty.
